The Futureheads - Hounds of Love Lyrics

When I was a child
Running in the night
I was afraid of what might be
Hiding in the dark
And hiding on the street for
And of what was following me

The hounds of love are calling (oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
I've always been a coward (oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
And I don't know what's good for me

Well, here I go
It's coming at me through the trees
Help me, someone, help me, please!
Take your shoes off
And I will throw them in the lake
And I will be, two steps on the water
I found a fox, who was caught by dogs
He let me take him in my hands
His little heart, it beat so fast
That I am ashamed to be running away
From nothing real, I just can't deal with this
I feel ashamed to be there

Among your hounds of loving (oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
And feel your arms surround me (oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
I've always been a coward (oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
And I don't know what's good for me (oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)

Well, here I go, don't let me go, hold me down
It's coming at me through the trees
Help me, someone, help me, please!
Take my shoes off
And I will throw them in the lake, and I will be
Two steps on the water
Do you know what I need, do you know what I need?
I need yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh!

Take my shoes off, and throw them in the lake
And I will be, two steps on the water (water, water, water)
I don't know what's good for me
I don't know what's good for me
Do you know what I need?
Do you know what I need?
I need yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
